The episode that featured the first clash between the Hardy’s on their property, with Senor Benjamin etc, is the highest rated episode of Impact Wrestling on Pop. Why would they show less of it? They are diversifying their product. Having good quality wrestling matches alone won’t meaningfully increase their viewership.

I wasn’t talking about Final Deletion. I was talking about last week’s Delete or Decay thing and that skit from the week before when Rosemary broke into the Hardy mansion. I had this debate last week with columnist Gerald Bocook that as a one time novelty, Final Deletion was fine for what it accomplished but if these kooky matches & promos from their “compound” are going to be par for the course in the Hardy’s feuds going forward then it’s going to wear out fast and going by last week’s viewership it may already have.
